About Scissors & Glue
I'm Chris, a motion designer with over 20 years of experience in 2D animation for digital, social, and branded content. I've worked with clients including Meta, Cartoon Network, and Microsoft delivering everything from high-volume campaigns to fast-turnaround social assets.
Scissors & Glue is the name I work under—either as a solo freelancer or, when needed, as a small studio setup with trusted collaborators.
I'm equally at home leading creative, managing delivery, or dropping into an existing team, but what I enjoy most is the animation itself. Key-framing is still my favourite part of the process.
"I have been working with Scissors&Glue on several accounts and on different type of projects. No matter the timings or the complexity, they have always answered with an amazing support and have delivered on time, if not ahead of time. They have an amazing team, and moreover, they are amazingly nice to work with. I have the chance to have recurring projects with them and it is one of the best suppliers you can have on video, DOOH. I would highly recommend them to anyone! They are simply great in all aspects."

"We were fortunate to work with Scissors&Glue on the Stamma.org It’s How We Talk campaign. Great animation direction and skilled craftsmanship from Chris provided excellent creative solutions and a smooth process across both projects."

"It is a real pleasure working with Scissors&Glue. Chris and his team deliver exceptional client service whilst always maintaining maximum creativity. I felt confident in their ability and dedication to work around tight turnarounds with an absolute eye to detail. Scissor&Glue is exactly what a small animation studio should be: imaginative, inventive and reliable. I look forward to the day a new brief lands on my lap, and I can work with the Brighton team again."

"I had the pleasure of working with Chris at Microsoft, in the office of the CTO's Design team. Chris is an extremely talented designer. He delivered exceedingly high quality work while working very efficiently. He was very pleasant to collaborate with and everybody on the team loved working with him. Chris offered great insights in the discussions while being open to feedback. I highly recommend him and would love to work with him in the future."
